Duchy of the Reach

Overview

Of all the provinces in Furyondy, the Duchy of the Reach is certainly the most cosmopolitan. This long, narrow strip of territory has a unique atmosphere, simply because it borders on so many different lands. Highfolk, Veluna, and Verbobonc all border on the duchy, in addition to Littleberg and the Gold County. The result of this unique hodge-podge of ideas and influences is an atmosphere of free-spirited independence in the Reach, an open and comfort-centered society that sometimes borders on hedonism in its efforts to have a good time.
That is not to say the people of the Reach are corrupted by their pleasure; despite their lackadaisical outlook on life, the people of the Reach are good folk, and their leader, the epicurean Duke Bennal Tyneman, is a fair and pleasant man. He prefers the open atmosphere of his duchy and is a reveler of Olidammara.
Surprisingly, there are very few poor and down trodden in the Reach, and even those with little coin spend it freely. Caronis is a major trade and travel center, with merchants and other people moving up and down the roads to Veluna City and Mitrik. Velunese influence is a stabilizing factor in the duchy.
